Today= day 2 of orientation

Things went well and this time I went it alone. Well I got up to Erskine Hall Theatre and nobody was up there yet besides these two other girls so I started talking to them and their names are Melissa and Tiffany. Turns out Melissa has a MySpace account haha so we had tons to talk about there! Melissa is also a commuter which made me smile because i'm not finding many commuters around ODU. Tiffany was really cool too, but I didn't really get to talk to her as much. She's really nice though and told me she's living on campus. Melissa gave me her MySpace page and I added her as a friend w00t w00t. haha. Also, I have her sn so next time we're both on I'll IM her. :o)
After Erskine we went outside to raise the Freshmen flag and then I see Ashley Eskstein! haha. I haven't seen Ashley since graduation so I was really happy to see her. We hugged and talked for a couple of minutes but then we had to go to our ODU 100 class.
Ventured off to that and realized I have Jamie in my class (girl I met the day before) haha. I also have Tim in my class, which of course it's always comforting having another person from your high school in there with you. A girl I met on the way over's name is Chrissy. She and I ended up sitting next to eachother and we talked off and on during the class.
We were asked to write to Mr. Erwin(our teacher) and let him know what we want to accomplish through ODU, our expectations, etc etc etc etc. So I did that and as I was writing I realized I have a lot of goals I'd like to accomplish in college. I don't want to share them on here because frankly it's more of a personal thing and I'd rather keep that to myself. Afterwards, Chrissy and I walked back over to Erskine to where I saw Cait, Zach and Michelle! haha. So we sat in the row behind them during the next presentation. As I was walking out I saw Amanda briefly told her where they were and then I left.
Funny thing. On my way out to cross the street I saw someone who looked really familiar to me. Jenna smiled and said "HEY SAM!" And then I was like "Hey Jenna!!" Jenna and Jen were both ready to leave as well so we all walked across the street together and then headed off to our cars. They're super nice as well!
Called my mommy once I got back on to James Rd. and told her about the events of the day and then finally I was home once again.
I haven't had much of an appetite lately because of my nerves and stress and everything just building up on me. It's really baring down on me. I at least ate SOMETHING today. I had chicken noodle soup and then I had some pizza, which was quickly followed by some ice pops. haha. I've been drinking water like CRAZY though. Think I have an addiction to water...is that possible?
Oh yes I forgot to mention yesterday about my great aunt. Well, this is my mom's aunt and I didn't think I'd ever met her but apparently I did when I was little (she lives in Virginia now). My mom's great aunt was just recently a couple days ago with colon cancer. Yesterday evening we came to find out that they cannot unclog her two blocked arteries, so techincally that means she's going to die. If you could please pray for my great aunt so that somehow, someway she can get better and as well please pray for my mom because my mom is really close to her.

Well kids I start college in a few hours. It's crazy to think, but oh it's true. I have English and Art (academic drawing) tomorrow so that should be fun. I should probably get off to sleep very soon and I'm definately drained and not feeling so hot so that's a great idea to me. Night kids! I'll probably end up updating during school tomorrow.
Just wish I could change things in time right now and make things happen differently. No matter what I do I'm never good enough for him, it's true. It's like the "oh i'm not pretty enough" or "oh i'm not skinny enough" thing..or at least that's how I felt after experiencing what I did. I just need to let go and realize it's probably never going to happen.

Night kids! Love ya.
